TIG: I'm fine taking a different starting hex than what I submitted, since Lettie needs a certain hex. Just give Kir priority in the realm of "as close to he upper left as he can get without bothering another allied unit's desired starting tile."

1) Drop Song of Speed, gain Nimble Knife. Drop Tuning the Outcome for Power Ballad. 2) Start in D4 3) Disorienting Dirge and Throw Voice, go on 14. Curse 2 demons, disarm 2 demons. (Could have been disarm 3 demons if we enhanced Throw Voice with another hex). 4) Marksman battle goal 5) Discard Soothing Lullaby, Singing Arrow, and Call to Action

Welp, I guess I'm not going faster than the flame demons then. He's gonna run right up into my face and drop a trap looks like. That makes him sub-optimal for shooting. I could put the 2 damage per turn doom on him and pivot to shooting the frost demon maybe?

# ? Apr 22, 2021 14:53 |
FairGame, what's the plan with Kir this round? Letty will add 5 curses it looks like since the far fire demon will be moving in too. Then I guess disarm the best looking triangle which looks to be the left ice and earth demons depending on how the fire demons stack up. I'd discard nimble knife as the third to keep song options open.

Flame demons are actually HELPING us, because the traps will restrict movements, you want to keep them alive this turn, and concentrate fire on the ice demons

Fire demons are flying and not affected by traps right? I think we can have them move onto the existing traps, and then drop their new traps to block up the frontal path for the demons, That will provide a lot of breathing room for the party. Fire demons in D3 and F4, Traps in C3 and E3

Right, I'll doom flame demon 2, and hit frost demon 3 with fresh kill. Should do some good damage.

dwarf74 posted:Yeah I don't understand Kir's cards. Setting up the persistent loss already maybe and pulling something adjacent, I'm guessing? It would have been a good pair of cards to combo a fire demon with if they weren't already moving to melee. Gloomhaven loves messing with best laid plans. As is, if he pulls one in, it may focus the crystal instead and move to one of the bottom spots before dropping its trap. This is an interesting first turn, I like when the game can become a puzzle because you have more time to think about it and more minds to bounce off of.

The Flame Demons should move to B3 and E2 or F3, then we pick where the traps end up, right? I say we have Flame Demon (3) (should this be a 1 instead?) go to F3, then have the traps dropped in C2 and E2 as that blocks the Earth Demons more efficiently. Letty should disarm Ice Demon (3) and Earth Demon (4). TravelLog fucked around with this message at 17:13 on Apr 22, 2021 |

Fire demons can fly, so they treat traps as empty for movement purposes. Kir moves to C3 and pulls earth demon 6 to C2 for a disarm triangle, both fire demons fly over the traps next to Kir taking 2 damage in the process, Letty does her thing and then Boris dooms and shoots an ice or earth one. Fire demons die next turn to a goomba stomp. Next round someone can fill the gap in the bottom right.

Omobono posted:Fire demons can fly, so they treat traps as empty for movement purposes. This wasn't my original plan, but I also wasn't planning on the flame demons not attacking this turn. My original plan involved setting up the persistent loss, moving toward one of the flame demons and then yanking it into me for 2 damage which would combo with a doom for a dead flame demon. Then tanking earth and frost. But yeah, this works to our advantage. Should be able to get 3 demons into a disarm formation for Letty, drop both flame demons to 1 so I can passively kill 'em next turn, leaving us with only 1 frost demon which isn't even that threatening if Letty moves out of the way. We should get out of this turn with 0 damage taken and a lot dished out.

# ? Apr 22, 2021 21:51 |
Letty's not moving this turn (per the votes so far) but we're dropping in 5 or so curses and 2 friendly blesses so we should be okay taking a frost demon hit this round.

Put it on the right flame demon; I don't see how it's going to cross my path. If TIG sees it differently, then yeah, doom something else. I think that's a reasonably contingency to order?

Kir can oh wait there is no goombastomp available due to cards. Kir can use blinding sickle to clean up the fire demons then burn away the dark to wound the earth and ice demon Ice demon should die from its wound + doom, but there is the one coming on the side. I propose letty stamina potion back her curse/bless and her disarm, curse the demon pile, and then disarm the ice demon before it can reach the crystal. Actually, Hey boris, can you use your invisible power to block the ice demon on the side while shooting with something else making it waste its turn, then letty can disarm the larger demon pile and make them waste their time.

What happens if someone plugs the gap in F5? Would the frost demon focus the crystal and take the long way around the traps or would it focus the plugger? Letty's turn: Minor stamina potion, recover Dirge and Throw voice. 09, Defensive Ditty, Throw Voice If someone else can cc frost demon 5 then do the following instead: Minor stamina potion, recover Dirge and Singing Arrow. 09, Defensive ditty, Singing Arrow

Omobono posted:What happens if someone plugs the gap in F5? Would the frost demon focus the crystal and take the long way around the traps or would it focus the plugger? If an invisible Boris sits in F5, it would walk straight through the trap at F4 and hit the crystal. Though if the fire demons die first and there is a trap-free path the ice demons would focus Kir and start walking back the other way. edit: Whoops, misread. If the plugger isn't invisible it would just focus them. It will only focus the crystal if it can reach and attack it this turn, so if there's a short open path or there's no other choice except through a trap.

Enemies will not go through a trap if they can path around it. The demon will walk around the traps and waste its turn, Remember the skeleton mission, Players being in the way do not count as impassable, the demon will thus go for kir.

That Italian Guy posted:The special rules for this mission supercede the regular Focus rules. If a monster can move and attack the Crystal, it will proceed even if it has to walk onto traps to do so. If it can't, it'll use the normal Focus rules instead. So maybe we carve the ice demon up with attacks and then hope the earth demons are real slow again so that they don't blow up the traps just yet

Question - if Letty hits a fire demon with Singing Arrow bottom and wounds it, then it dies from the wound on its turn, does that count as her killing it for her battle goal? For future reference, they are too close for that this turn.

I vote instead that letty Recover with minor potion, dirge and throw voice init 14 Dirge bottom throw voice top, take out the earth demon pile up with disarm I think maxing curses in the enemies deck and reducing damage to kir is the best plan, Boris can shoot up the healthy ice demon and then make it go through the trap so it's down in hp and then the crystal can take a single hit, but hopefully the demon just loving whiffs on a curse.

For future reference, they are too close for that this turn. If a monster dies from Wound damage, nobody gets kill credit. Usually it has to die on your turn for it to count, whether it be from attacking, pushing into a trap, etc. There are exceptions, such as death by retaliate.

Going to get my persistent bonus up this round, so not planning to do an attack. I'll let the damage over time doom do it's thing this round. I have to act before the frost demons if I can, but if I play another doom, then the current one will go away. Need to get my persistent bonus up anyway. I'll go invisible and block F5 if I can.
